The patient could not be transported to the Georgian-controlled territory against the wish of the relatives who requested the transportation of the injured person on the day of the accident. The de facto authoritiestransferred him/her from Akhalgori district hospital to Tskhinvali and stated that the patient received all the necessary medical help. Currently, T.G. is discharged from Tskhinvali medical facility and is at home.
